The Headquarters of Families of Hostages stated following the identification of Suttisak Rintalak at the Institute of Forensic Medicine that "alongside the sadness, his return provides relief to a family that has been living in excruciating uncertainty and doubt for over two years." Rintalak's family shared that he was very close to his brother, and they always did everything together. "As part of the foreign workers employment program, he worked in orchards in the Gaza envelope and was considered a hardworking and beloved employee among his coworkers. On October 7, while visiting a friend near the orchards of Kibbutz Be'eri, Hamas terrorists attacked the area and Suttisak was kidnapped along with other workers," they said.
